The Department of Justice To Investigate Verdict in Oscar Grant Case
(NY Post) — The Department of Justice’s civil-rights division will investigate a white Oakland police officer who killed an unarmed black man on a crowded train platform, a case reminiscent of the racially charged 1992 police beating of Rodney King. The feds will step in after Officer Johannes Mehserle, 28, was convicted Thursday of a lesser charge of involuntary manslaughter, touching off violent protests that damaged stores and led to 83 arrests.
